Going off topic..there is sad news for those of us who enjoyed the original Star Trek. Majel Barrett (Roddenberry) has passed away from Leukemia.

That is sad news, indeed.

[...] I think Michelle needs to seriously look into going to the hospital, because I believe that “Sickness” that she has, is going to her [...]

Chap, shoveling is why I moved to Georgia. I will never again have to get up at 5 am to shovel out my driveway for the privilage of going to work, and then hope the plow didn’t block the drive so I could get home.

Yankee by birth, Southern by choice.

It's five AM chap. Time to milk the cows, but I need to shovel the snow first.

And when have I talked smack about you, Chaps?

You’re kidding, right? But my comment above was meant in good fun, in any case.

I apologize for offending you.

Wishing you well, Michelle. It is terribly unkind of the Fates to make you sick during the Holiday. VLWC?

Rest and don’t bother with blogging, just concentrate on getting well.

Very sorry to hear that Majel died. I liked her in Star Trek. In other news out of California (sigh), it seems the door is now open for “ifs, ands, and buts” in the Good Samaritian law. I figured sooner or later, with lawsuit hysteria these days, it would come. If you live in California, see a wreck, just keep going for your financial sake. As someone in the medical field, I’m rather reluctant to stop anyway. Lord knows, what will come of it. I have always stopped in the past, and rendered medical help, but, these days, I wonder.

OK Chappy I’ll ask.
What weapon would you use?

See…I was going to say simply:

“Empathy.”

which I would have considered a funny, self deprecating bit of satire on the perception of liberals in general

My vote was on Jello.

a beautiful song called Vincent (Starry Starry Night).

I’ve always liked that. And for anyone who’s never seen a Van Gogh in person, you should when you can. Books and prints never do the real thing justice.

The best museum for his works is the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Especially the self-portraits… it’s like the eyes follow you everywhere. Then again, there’s always been a lot of movement in Van Gogh’s brushstrokes, so that’s perhaps why I got the feeling when I looked at the paintings.

I hereby hand this blog back to Michelle

I think it’s fair to say she’ll think twice about getting sick again…
